A vibrant turquoise lake, Hanging Lake, is surrounded by lush green trees and a rocky cliff. Multiple waterfalls cascade into the clear water, with fallen logs partially submerged, creating a serene natural oasis in Glenwood Canyon, Colorado.
Hanging Lake - Glenwood Canyon, CO ⛰️
One of my favorite hidden gems in Colorado! Hanging Lake in Glenwood Canyon is a breathtaking oasis, perfect for a summer adventure. The crystal-clear waters and stunning waterfalls made this hike absolutely worth it. The hike itself is 1.2 miles, steep, rough, and rocky, but again well worth it! ⛰
